26 How do atoms pair?
27 Two-body bound states in 1D, 2D, and 3D 1D, 2D: bound state for arbitrarily small attractive well 3D: Well depth has be larger than threshold
28 Connection to the density of states In momentum space
29 Connection to the density of states In momentum space Short range potential: V(q)=V 0 for q<1/r Integrate over q, divide by common factor
30 Bound state for arbitrarily small V 0 only if integral diverges for E 0
31 Bound state for arbitrarily small V 0 only if integral diverges for E 0 In 2D (constant density of states): logarithmic divergence
32 The Cooper problem:
33 Two fermions with weak interactions on top of a filled Fermi sea Total momentum zero Total momentum non-zero 2q
34 Pauli blocking Compare with previous result for single particle bound state
35 Pauli blocking After replacing the bare interaction V 0 by the scattering length a
36 Cooper Pairing Consider two particles,, on top of a filled, inert Fermi sea Total momentum zero Total momentum non-zero Reduced density of states Much smaller binding energy The important pairs are those with zero momentum
37 BCS Wavefunction How can we find a state in which all fermions are paired in a self-consistent way? John Bardeen Leon N. Cooper John R. Schrieffer
38 BCS Wavefunction Many-body wavefunction for a condensate of Fermion Pairs: Spatial pair wavefunction Spin wavefunction Second quantization: Fourier transform: Pair wavefunction: Operators: Pair creation operator: Many-body wavefunction: a fermion pair condensate
39 is not a Bose condensate Commutation relations for pair creation/annihilation operators Occupation of momentum k pairs do not obey Bose commutation relations, unless BEC limit of tightly bound molecules
40 BCS Wavefunction Introduce coherent state / switch to grand-canonical description: and commute because Normalization: BCS wavefunction: with and
41 BCS Wavefunction and are identical!
42 Many-Body Hamiltonian Second quantized Hamiltonian for interacting fermions: Contact interaction: Fourier transform via BCS Approximation: Only include scattering between zero-momentum pairs Solve via 1) Variational Ansatz, 2) via Bogoliubov transformation
43 Variational Ansatz: Insert BCS wavefunction into Many-Body Hamiltonian. Minimize Free Energy: Result: E k Δ Gap equation:
44 Solution via Bogoliubov Transform BCS Hamiltonian is quartic: Introduce pairing field (mean field or decoupling approximation): small fluctuations (assumption) Neglect products (correlations) of those small fluctuations Define This plays the role of the condensate wavefunction
45 Solution via Bogoliubov Transform Rewrite Hamiltonian, drop terms quadratic in C s: Hamiltonian is now bilinear Solve via Bogoliubov transformation to quasiparticle operators: With the choice and we get Ground state energy Non-interacting gas of fermionic quasi-particles
46 Solution of the gap equation Looks similar to equation for bound state in 2D (and Cooper problem)
47 Gap equation: Solution of the gap equation Number equation: Simultaneously solve for µ and Δ
48 Solution of the gap equation BEC-side: Molecules BCS-side: Gap exponentially small
49 Critical temperature Can be derived from Bogoliubov Hamiltonian with fluctuations T C /T F Conventional SC: Superfluid 3 He: 10-3 High-T C SC: 10-2 High-T C Superfluid: 0.15 BEC-limit: BCS-limit:
